Hirukon can drop the mount Polipo Stellafonda.
Located inside the water.

/way 52,2, 75,3 Hirukon

To trigger Hirukon you have to fish in his pool.
I spend 2 hours fishing and doesn't trigger, so probably need a lot of people fishing to trigger fast.

As the tooltip says, this drops from Hirukon, who requires Esca per Aurelide to be triggered. It seems to be a guaranteed drop for Esca per Aurelide users, but a very low chance for others.

To obtain it, you must first fish up Gelatina Strana from Hirukon's waters (this appears to be a very rare chance currently).

Taking it to Baronessa Vashj will reveal she can make you a lure for Hirukon, and provides a hint as to where you can find the other 3 ingredients.

Medumelma Pungente is fished up from a inside Coilfang Reservoir at /way #102 52.2 37.9
Medusa Pinnata is obtained by initially fishing up a Medusa Pinnata from a in Zin-Azshari, Nazjatar at /way #1355 72.8 24.3, which immediately "slips away" and summons a Medusa Pinnata that flops about and must be caught by clicking on it to get the final item.
Viticcio Spirastretta is obtained from in Nar'shola Terrace, Shimmering Expanse at /way #205 34.7 75.0, located on the balcony of a tower on the second level of ruins (it's extremely hard to see it).

Once you have all of these ingredients, return to Baronessa Vashj, and she will turn them into an Esca per Aurelide.

Despite what the use effect says, right-clicking the Esca per Aurelide will consume it and apply Esca per Aurelide to you, which allows you to see an to fish in at /way #1970 51.86 74.31, which in turn will trigger Hirukon on a successful fish for a seemingly guaranteed drop of Polipo Stellafonda for you on kill. It can drop for non-lure users, but it's a very low drop chance.

The trigger happens at the same time as looting your bobber, and there will be a zone wide broadcast of "Hirukon cautiously emerges from the depths below." when it starts rising up.

Hirukon seems to have a 15-20 minute respawn time. As is the case with most rares currently, it remains a rare even after your first kill each day but Flusso Cosmico will no longer drop. This suggests Polipo Stellafonda is also only available on the first kill each day unless you use the lure.

Baronessa Vashj can provide you with a new lure each week at no cost, even after you obtain the mount.

Credit to Matjz for spotting the , Lazey for assistance in pinpointing its location and obtaining the first Gelatina Strana, Lanjelive for first finding the unintended trigger spot, and again Matjz for repeatedly testing and confirming the invisible spot with me.

Quest flags:
Lure turn in:
Hirukon kill (without lure): (resets daily)
Hirukon kill (with lure buff): (resets weekly)

Hirukon rare has a chance to drop Polipo Stellafonda mount, so it's Zereth Mortis daily grind

Looks like a lightforged jelly fish. Might have to learn fishing on my LF pally and warrior if I got this.

Commento di TheFallen87

I hope this is a flying mount and not some weird glowing underwater mount.

Drops from Hirukon
The player Triggering Hirukon with Esca per Aurelide is guaranteed a Polipo Stellafonda to drop on kill.

To obtain a Esca per Aurelide you need to fish up Gelatina Strana from Hirukon's pool
/way 52.6 75.0
Dropchance is quite abysmal, probably around 1/1500 according to my experience and the people I've talked to.

Once obtained to go Baronessa Vashj in Maldraxxus
/way 57.6 92.0
She lets you know that she can make a lure if you bring 3 materials.
Medumelma Pungente Medusa Pinnata Viticcio Spirastretta

Medumelma Pungente can be fished from a school inside Coilfang Resevoir in Zangarmarsh Outland
/way 52.2 37.9

Medusa Pinnata can be fished from a school in Nazjatar, when caught it slips away and you have to barbaricly catch it with your bare hands.
/way 72.8 24.3

Viticcio Spirastretta
Is found in Shimmering Expanse, the subzone of the Cataclysm zone Vashj'ir. Found in the lower ruins on a balcony, and can be very hard to see.
/way 34.7 75.0

Return to Baronessa Vashj with the materials and she'll make an Esca per Aurelide

Apply the Esca per Aurelide once at Hirukon in Zereth Mortis, and you'll be able to see an Aurelid Cluster. Fish in it to trigger Hirukon to Emerge.

*IMPORTANT* - The mount will not drop if it is not your first kill of the day. Killing Hirukon when someone else triggers him, will lockout looting the mount until next reset. So if you obtain the Lure, don't use it until the next day if you've already killed Hirukon that day.

Grats on your Polipo Stellafonda

Commento di Blynni6614

As of Feb 22, I received this mount after 346 casts. Fished at 51,73. At the moment there is a bug with the mount that causes it to have a running speed as if you are underwater (only shows 100% swimming speed). If you are in a flying zone, the mount works as normal (100% movement and 310% flying) Please report so Blizz fixes this beautiful mount <3

Commento di Jurvichious

Just a heads up: It seems this mount won't drop for you if you've killed Hirukon previously on the same day, even if you summon it yourself. Someone summoned it while I was fishing so I killed it and got the lure later on. I was skeptical if the mount would drop if I summoned it, but did it just to confirm. I've submitted a ticket because I'm not sure if this is bugged or intentional since Hirukon drops Flux and Cyphers on multiple kills anyway. Just be patient and good luck! Wait for the daily reset or you'll be waiting a week to get a new lure.

*No luck with my ticket of course, but if enough bug reports go in it might get looked into or fixed. There also seems to be more reports now of people who didn't kill Hirukon the same day they used their lure which is sad. Layers of rng never feels good. I was lucky to get the goop early, but some fish thousands of attempts or buy the goop for hundreds of thousands of gold just for the mount to not be guaranteed. Hopefully this gets looked into. Hard to know whether the devs intended it or not.

**Thank you Warent1769 for the note. I resubmitted my ticket and was granted the mount. I think blizz is catching up on the bug now. Happy fishing all :)!

Commento di Protagoras

Does anybody knows if it drops for any other group members as well?

Commento di Nurmat

Used the lure, got the mount from kill

Commento di DCCXVIII

After doing some testing on this mount, i've come to the conclusion that it is currently bugged. It does NOT have 100% ground speed like regular land mounts in ANY zone that prohibits flying. So that includes Argus, Zerith Mortis (without flying unlocked), Legion order halls that allow you to mount up, Timeless Isle etc. It travels at about 50%? on land in ANY zone that you do NOT have flying unlocked or prohibits flying completely. But if you mount it in any other zone that you CAN fly in, it behaves like any other regular mount that can fly by having 100% ground mount speed.

It seems to be applying its swim speed buff instead of its ground mount speed.

Edit: Confirmation that Blizz recognises it is bugged: https://us.battle.net/support/en/article/306193

Edit: The mount has now been patched and is working properly except for the fact that mount equipment doesn't work on it for some reason.

Commento di Varrath

Mount is moving incredible slow in Zereth Mortis and other non-flying zones. In flying zones however, it is working perfectly. Fast swimming/ground movement/flying. Very dissapointing since I wanted to make this mount my new ground/flying one :/ I hope this gets fixed very soon

Commento di Adrenaliin

Works for me so I hope it works for you too.

Commento di Synthis

For those wondering if it is possible to get the mount through a fishing raid group - I can confirm it is true.

Had a full raid group when the person fished up the goop and did the questline, they came back and brought Hirukon out. They got the mount as well as 2 other people (myself included). I am not sure on what the % drop rate will end up being for others but I would say that the person who does the quest line and is the one that lures him out would be a 100% chance?

Commento di Cynalessa

Completed this yesterday on Barthilas-OCE. Lure took me 450-500 casts (guestimating the junk I vendored) over ~1.5 hours.

One thing to note when doing the Zin-Azshari slippery fish for my fellow Shaman and DK brethren. If you fish from water (WW/Path of Frost) and the fish goes underwater, I found the cast-bar to pick up the fish does not appear. Fishing from land allowed the fish to hop onto land and it can be correctly picked up.

And if anyone's wondering for Xmog purposes, the sword (Estensione Radiante di Hirukon?bonus=6935) can drop for other classes besides pally/dk/warr as the Wowhead list may suggest. My mage friend had the sword drop for him on my kill.

And to confirm, Vashj providing a new lure does correctly look to be weekly - Returning to her this morning doesn't allow an option for another lure.

I used three Precursor Placoderm baits up while fishing and ended up with:
86 Precursor Placoderm
36 Elysian Thade (+13 baits)
321 Lost Soles (+53 baits)

+ junk.

Happy fishing!

Commento di Saneria

YOU DONT need to fish a single cast.
I just got the mount - WITHOUT any group - by just walking over there and killing him.
I just skipped prologue on Rogue alt and thought i'd give my theory it could still be dropping a shot.
Dropped.

Mount dropped first try
Mount itself

Commento di Naas

The Aurelid Cluster fishing pool is just a small clear pool of fish and is pretty difficult to see, so make sure to have people stand back a bit so that you can find it.

I used Group Finder to invite a raid full of people so others could also have a chance at the mount, and it was pretty much impossible to find the pool with everyone running around and causing the water to ripple. I was frantically trying to search for the pool and randomly fishing until we had people clear the immediate area.

Commento di TheMinority

The hype for this guy reminds me a lot of the Fallen Charger mount at the start of 9.1. I have been fishing for 1200 attempts in total so far. Never got it. Killed him three times on different characters. One guy in my farm group got 3 (yes 3!) strange goop during 2 h time. I saw it myself. Sry don't have screens. You can sell the strange goop on AH for tons of gold right now to ppl who don't want to spend time fishing.

UPDATE: After almost 3000 attempts on the goop I got mine from another guy's lure after 38 attempts on the mount.

Commento di DoomDIDamn

Apparently, it is NOT a 100% drop if you summon it yourself. I've just killed 10 hours fishing for the goop, and then after getting all the rest of the items I gained the OPPORTUNITY TO SUMMON him once per day. That does not mean I will get it soon, still.

UPD: The next day Vashj did not give me a second lure. Apparently, I have to fish up the goop AGAIN.

Commento di Aelthalysthe

It's soooooo frustrating to be a sucker like me, over 3100 casts and nothing.
EDIT 1: 5000 casts and nothing.

Commento di JimKappa420

This mount in orbos maw and zereth only show 100% swim speed but when is use in arderweald is show 100% ground speed and 310% fly speed

Commento di JacobPower

Just want to let people know, if you have the lure in your inventory and someone else fishes it up you do NOT get the mount and have to wait for daily reset.

Commento di falka31

Killed today, no lure, got mount

Commento di ambyeverafter

1. Strange Goop has a very low drop chance. I got mine in 980 casts over two days; a guildmate got theirs in just over 1300 casts. It's a grind and a half!
2. Much like the majority of rares, you only get 1 chance per day for the mount. So if you kill him on someone else's summon and later get the Goop, don't use the lure until the following day!
3. In any zones that currently do not allow flying, it is limited to 100% Swim Speed and is otherwise very slow. Any area that allows flying it acts as a normal flying mount. 100% Ground Speed and 310% (or whatever you have learned) Flight Speed.

Commento di sarahb

I know you can only get the mount on your first kill of the day ... but is that character specific or can you still have the chance at the mount on alts?

Commento di Specoli

Saw 2 people today get one in the same raid group. Person who fished up Hirukon and one who was in the raid group both got the mount. So 2+ will drop for one group. Good luck everyone.

Commento di Richardbro

If you don't want to fish for the low drop chance, you can buy Gelatina Strana on the auction house. Prices will vary based on servers. I have seen it for 200k on some servers and 400k on others.

You can also buy Medumelma Pungente, Medusa Pinnata and Viticcio Spirastretta on the auction house, but I do not recommend it as they will be overpriced and these items are easy to acquire once you have the Gelatina Strana.

Also, remember when using the lure Esca per Aurelide to have graphic settings on high and make sure it's both your first time looting Hirukon for the day and first time using the lure for the week on that character, in order to get the mount Polipo Stellafonda

Commento di Richardbro

Once you get Gelatina Strana by either fishing it up (1/1200 chance) or buying it on the auction house, the hard part is DONE.

Medumelma Pungente, Medusa Pinnata and Viticcio Spirastretta require NO RNG so don't worry, just go to their locations and you will fish/loot them up quickly.

Once you summon Hirukon using the lure Esca per Aurelide make to have graphic settings on high and make sure it's your first time looting Hirukon for the day on that character to get the mount Polipo Stellafonda

Commento di PeterEgan

the fact that it doesnt drop even when using the lure after you already killed it once or twice that day, is actually a bug.. if this happens to you just submit a ticket.. my friend didnt get the mount after using the lure probably because she already killed Hirukon twice that day.. so she submitted a ticket the next day and got the mount through mail from a GM.

Commento di Vences

Mount Equipment does not work with this mount. :/

Commento di morituri

Btw the Bardatura Confortevole per Cavaliere doesn't work with this mount. If you mouseover on it, with the mount collection open, it'll say that it doesn't work because the mount already has an ability. =(

Commento di beardymkw

Took about 1500casts to drop Gelatina Strana, the rest of the lure was easy, just some flying in few zones.

The thing that saddens me the most is that the mount equipement doesn't work with Polipo Stellafonda. I use Bardatura Confortevole per Cavaliere while doing Korthia, Maw and Zereth Mortis, and I will have to use different mounts to not get dazed all the time.

Commento di Nevarii

Just to confirm some details and about how you can get around;

You do not need to talk to Baroness Vashj in Maldraxxus when you get your Strange Goop , you can directly go to Zangarmarsh, Nazjatar and Vash'ir to get the required items for the lure.

If you, like me, couldn't use the portal to Vashj'ir then you can either (1) fly directly there, you wouldn't die of fatigue when flying from Dun Morough, or (2) you can start the introduction quest line to Vashj'ir which you can start from a Hero Board. If it isn't showing then just accept one of the other Hero Calls quests and then the one for Vashj'ir will show up. I used the Hero Board in Stormwind to start the Hero's Call: Vashj'ri! at coords /way 62.23 29.58, but there is multiple in both Stormwind and Ogrimmar. The quest will teleport you directly to Vashj'ir.

To get to Zangarmarsh I used Fractured Necrolyte Skull, but you can also just take the portal to Shattrath City from the portal rooms in Stormwind or Orgrimmar.

To get to Nazjatar you have to use a portal in the portal room in Boralus or Dazar'alor, but you need to have done the introduction quest Send the Fleet / Send the Fleet and its quest chain to unlock the portal. I believe you can be sent back to Nazjatar though if you didn't finish the quest chain, possibly by some NPC near the Island Expedition NPCs but I haven't got to confirm if that's true.

Edit: Just to clarify, if you killed Hirukon on the same day you get your lure but didn't trigger him, you have to wait until the daily reset (and not the weekly reset). I killed Hirukon yesterday (not my lure) while today I got the lure, triggered him and got the mount.

Commento di Aphelyite

I was under the impression that getting the strange goop would give you a better chance at the mount, but so far I've killed it several times with the goop to no avail. Multiple people have told me they've gotten their mount after they got it, first time. Didn't find any evidence of that online, other than outright luck.

Commento di NissaR

Got it today on my mains first attempt of the day, oddly enough I had just assembled the lure yesterday and had it in my bags but forgot, so I killed him after someone else fished him up, not sure if me having the lure in my bags had anything to do with my luck on getting the mount.

Commento di aidler

After more then 740 attempts for the strange goop and while fishing someone summoned Hirukon and I joined the fight. The mount dropped on my first attempt and while I still had no strange goop. I have no words and sadly think the strange goop is not that important. Someone has to fish his literal ass off to summon Hirukon but the chance to get the mount seems to be the same for everyone... goop or no goop

Commento di Hyrcyne

This mount does not benefit from mount equipment. However, this mount comes with a unique benefit: it can fly, and it travels as fast as any other aquatic mount underwater.

Aurelide Criptico from Dalla A alla Zereth is a recolor of this mount with the same benefit.

Commento di violetta

it was Strange Goop that held us together
while we both came apart at the seams
she said "your plaice or mine while we've still got the thyme"
so I played along with her schemes
but I don't have the right to fish you tonight
so please leave me alone with no mount yet in sight
I will fish safe and sound with nobody around me

when faced with bufonids, raptora and aurelids
and I smile, yes I smile as it's taking me over
and if I can not sleep for the obsession I keep
it's the price I grudgingly meet
oh the end of the line never comes too quickly for me
so I don't have the right to be with you tonight
so please leave me alone with no saviour
I will fish safe and sound with nobody around me

Commento di ovr11

Am a Mount collector and have one question if you could share me your opinon please,is it worth it on spending 60K gold on Gelatina Stranaitem in Ahouse in my current server, note that item is part of chain 1/4 items and it has very low chance on getting it by fishing or of Ahouse spending 60K gold on Gelatina Strana so you could handout all four material vash with rest items to reward player an item that could be used for fisher to bait in order mount and defeat npc to get it 100% drop chance and for random players that join engaged fight wiill not have similar dop chance and i belive its below 5% drop chance.

Should i wait untill end of 9.2.5 or anytime later to obtain it as rest of players will and think about could easily for many things with gold and spend on item worth 15-400 g lets say , What makes mount to vaule high to me and other mount collecters not only it look great if the item be removed from game an % chance for it that what makes me love to thoese mount and not mount after while of time almost all has it. i hope have cleared my concern and if you could aid me with your gentle opinon.

Thanks,

Commento di giovannileanza

With rare drops like this and the work you have to do for it i wasn't interested in this mount. But whenever someone fished up Hirukon i would come and help kill him, as i was aiming for the sword he drops. I never expected or hoped for the mount to drop, so i was quite surprised when one day some time had passed after a kill and i open up my bags and saw some item called deepstar polyp... I was like, "wait, is that the mount?"... Turns out i got both the sword and the mount in one drop. I didn't even notice as i looked more to the pop-up window that said i got the sword. Strange that the mount doesn't have a pop-up window...

It helps no one but i just wanted to share my story. At least it's not a "lol got it on first kill" comment.

Commento di Marlexia

I don't know if it was sheer luck or what but I bought the goop on the AH, made it into a lure and put it in my bank because I had already killed Hirukon earlier that day and was told to NOT use it because it wouldn't drop when I fished him up. I returned later and someone was killing it so I jumped it and looted it and IT DROPPED, for context I did NOT have the lure equipped because it was in my bank, so I don't know if Blizzard smiled down upon me or what but figured I'd share

Commento di Bloodhair

used my main to farm Zereth mortis non stop, and unfortunately missed last two or 3 Hirukon spawns. Today just wanted to finish weekly with an alt, it dropped for me. rare drop just works its own way

Commento di sk4p

RNG is a cruel mistress. I made 1,250 casts until I got the Strange Goop. (Counted by Rarity.)

I planned to use the lure tonight when more people would be online to get their chance at the mount, but I saw someone on /general calling out that they were going to lure Hirukon, so I thought "why not?"

... and I got the mount from that kill.

Still gonna use my lure later of course and hope other folks get lucky as well!
